[Title] => Use of calamity funds for disaster-preparedness urged
[Summary] => "Local Government Units (LGUs) should be allowed to use emergency funds "before typhoons and other calamities strike, and not only when they have already wrought damage to life and property."
Former Defense Secretary Orlando Mercado pointed this out in dialogues with local officials in Naga and Legaspi Cities, noting that under the law, up to five percent of the budgets of LGUs are automatically set aside as calamity funds.

[Title] => Orly seeks better deal for barangay health workers
[Summary] => Former Defense Secretary Orlando Mercado wants a fuller implementation of the welfare law for barangay health workers (BHW’s) not only to boost their morale and help their families but also strengthen the delivery of health services to the rural areas.
Mercado, who authored the Magna Carta for Barangay Health Workers, pointed out that with the devolution of basic health services to local government units (LGUs), the frontline role of BHW’s should be given more support by the government.

[Title] => Mercado bats for stronger PNP action against rogue cops
[Summary] => Former Defense Secretary Orlando Mercado called yesterday for the ‘strengthening of the internal affairs investigation mechanism’ in the Philippine National Police (PNP) to check the performance and conduct of police officers.
Mercado bewailed the fact that the operation of "a strong and no-nonsense PNP Internal Affairs Department, as embodied in the PNP Reform Law has never been given emphasis as to really remove scalawags."
